Travel Thoughts

Traditions're nice. Been living up here (PacNW) for nearly 2.5 years now. Realizing the need for following/establishing traditions, yet also wanting to focus more locally. Will eventually figure out how best to balance this.
Would like to continue visiting SoCal in early January (for Troubies' Holiday Show), in April or May (for AJ's b-day/Mom's Day/RenFaire), and some other time (likely Summertime - either pre-FW or near
hiddentass's b-day - 8/23 - makes sense). Would also like to keep the traditions alive of spending my b-day (Sept) and x-mas (Dec) in/near the Bay Area. Nov's got T-giving, although location can vary (and be local at times, ideally). April/May's been we3 Fambily Neah Bay holiday. July/Aug's got FaerieWorlds. Oct's been Astoriaversary w/ALF (wherever that happens to be celebrated ;-) Now gonna list this all chronologically and see how crowded this makes life w/awayness:
Jan: SoCal (Troubies)
Feb: nada in particular, although I quite liked the we3 fambily V-day holiday (new tradition?)
Mar: nada in particular, usually, HOWEVER: 3rd w'end of 2010 = SoCal wedding
Apr: SoCal (RenFaire) or Neah Bay (we3) / 4/23/2010 = step-mom's 70th b-day!
May: Neah Bay (we3) or SoCal (RenFaire)
Jun: nada in particular (fambily seems to visit me in PDX 'round now)
Jul: FW and possibly SoCal (if not in Aug)
Aug: FW and possibly SoCal (if not in July)
Sep: Bay Area (b-day/Solano Stroll/RenFaire)
Oct: Astoria(ish) ALF Anniversary
Nov: T-giving (wherever)
Dec: Bay Area (x-mas)
Yeah, nothing's set in stone. Past performance need not indicate future results...or something. Starting to feel stressed and the opposite of my desired state (BAPAMAP). This is a sign of...something. Likely that I need to go to sleep.
